Overview

About 12 Rye Crescent

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

12 Rye Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cople, Bedford, Bedford (MK44 3TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2007–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 41.4% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 48.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in November 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
